AC
Delco Signs Naming Rights Partnership
with Sydney Dragway |
|
Aftermarket
automotive industry leader ADDelco has
today announced an agreement to secure
the naming rights to the East Coast
Thunder to be held at Sydney Dragway in
November. |
|
The single year
agreement demonstrates a significant and
increasing commitment to drag racing,
after last season partnership with
Fabietti Racing and their driver Mark
Belleri to win last season's 400 Pro
Slammer title. |
|
After the
success enjoyed
by ACDelco in the first year of
their partnership with Fabietti Racing,
taking on the naming rights to one of
the most prestigious events on the
Australian Drag racing calendar was a
natural progression. |
|
Paul Rietveld
from ACDelco was enthusiastic about the
new partnership, saying today "the
iconic ACDelco brand has built a solid
reputation over the last 100 years
through its competitively priced quality
products, largely amongst trade
customers. Partnering with Sydney
Dragway provides ACDelco with a great
opportunity to grow its brand awareness
with the enthusiastic race fans through
our support of such an iconic event". |
|
Sydney Dragway
General Manager Peter Beaumont was
glowing in his praise of ACDelco "to be
able to partner such an iconic event as
the East Coast Thunder with an industry
leading brand like ACDelco is truly a
pleasure. The range and quality of the
products offered by ACDelco is rivaled
only by the quality of the racing that
we are expecting to see at the ACDelco
East Coast Thunder!". |
|
The ACDelco
East Coast Thunder is the second round
of the 2017/18 400 Thunder Professional
Drag Racing Series, and will be the
first opportunity fans have to see Top
Fuel on the ease coast this season. It
is also the first time this season that
all 400 Thunder Professional and
Sportsman series categories will be at
attendance at a single event this
season. |
